Anyone else read old threads here and get sad?

I always looked at, and even purposely looked up, old threads and posts (of my own, and other people's, that I liked and thought were good) quite often. Until the search function broke....

 

At 49, I'm much more secure and confident with where my life is headed. I've been married for well over 10 years now, and I am happy.

I'm honestly starting to look forward to retiring in 10 years or so and starting something else. I'm not striving to do more, more, and more. We are financially good and a lot wiser with our money.

What's really funny is, I don't want more and more stuff. I'm happy with what I have. That's a huge change. Maybe it's maturing late?

I'm also saying good bye to aunts and uncles. Friends are getting divorced and a few are getting sick. I can also bet folding money on the ones who are cheating on their spouses.

 

Maybe not old threads, but definitely old emails.

 

Good thing you didn’t. You’d be getting asked why you named her after a wrestler.

 

Pat Patterson just got wood and doesn’t know why.

 

Wait - the search function is back up?
Watching Endgame, it struck me how many people in my life are no longer around who I attended various Marvel movies with back when they were starting up.

 

I arrived in 2012!

 

Might be a payment form in old threads. Try the Search function!

 

What I notice is how few of the people that attended the 2006 Get Together are still on the board. We met some great people and many are friends out in the real world now but they ain't hanging out here anymore.

 

Wait. Was that Toronto? That was in 2006? Can't be.
